Title: Method of operating a pollution-reducing engine and installation on urban buses and other vehicles
Inventor: NEGRE GUY
IPC: F01N5/00
Filed: 1997-06-17
Granted: 2001-06-14
Abstract: A method for reducing pollution in a mono-mode air-air combustion engine having an intake and compression chamber, connected to a constant volume expansion chamber, which is connected in turn to an expansion and exhaust chamber. External air is drawn into the intake chamber and compressed to an increased pressure and temperature. The compressed air is transferred to the constant volume expansion chamber, wherein additional, ambient temperature, compressed air is injected therein. The injected air, when contacting the elevated pressure and temperature of the compressed air causes an expansion of the air within the constant volume expansion chamber. The energy associated with the air expansion is transferred to the expansion and exhaust chamber, wherein the continued compressed air expansion produces a work force that is imparted to a piston. The energy depleted air is then exhausted through an exhaust value.

Title: Manufacture of arsenic acid
Inventor: BROOME ANDREW DAVID JOHN
IPC: C01G28/00
Filed: 1984-12-10
Granted: 1989-03-02
Abstract: Manufacture of arsenic acid by oxidation of arsenic trioxide with hydrogen peroxide is potentially hazardous, especially when making concentrated solutions of arsenic acid as sought by the users. The process also can suffer from substantial wasteful decomposition of hydrogen peroxide. The problems arise from or are exacerbated by the nature of the reactants, the exothermic character of the principal and decomposition reactions and the formation of localised hot spots.   The problems can be ameliorated by introducing the reagents with agitation into a body of reaction product and maintaining the reaction mixture at a temperature of not more than 70 DEG C and preferably 45 to 55 DEG C. By carrying out the process in such a manner, it can accomodate even low grade arsenic trioxide as reagent.
